the link_to command is really nice, especially with confirm built in -
wondering if there is a way to use it with SVG images since SVG doesn't
seem to work with image_tag
I can display svg images (in Firefox) with the following code:
<embed width=32 height=32 src="/images/quit.svg"
type="image/svg+xml"></embed>
"normal" link_to code:
<%= link_to(image_tag("quit.png"),:controller=>"project",
:action=>"quit", :confirm=>"Existing Project Changes Might Get Lost -
Are You Sure?") %>
I can use straight html code with href calling .../project/quit but then
miss the nice confirm method

Try this:
<%=link_to "<embed width='32' height='32' src='<%=url_for
'quit.svg'%>'></embed>", :controller => 'project', :action => 'quit',
:confirm
=> "Existing Project Changes Might Get Lost -- Are You Sure?"%>
I haven't test this, but it should work. With that many nested quotes
you might
be better off escaping some of them.

thks for suggestion, I couldn't use the url_for , it gave me an
interminate string error but replacing it with the call to the /image
directory, the svg image shows up but no hyperlink:
<%= link_to "<embed width=32 height=32 src='/images/quit.svg'>
</embed>",
:controller=>'program', :action=>'quit', :confirm=>'Existing Project
Changes
Might Get Lost Are You Sure?' %>
even if I wrap the link_to with parentheses like a regular link_to, it
still doesn't give the hyperlink hmmm, I don't understand, any ideas?
